STRATEGIC PROCUREMENT
Timberlab is committed to responsible wood sourcing for our projects and offers creative solutions to meet sustainability and wood procurement goals. We prioritize working with suppliers who adhere to rigorous environmental standards and promote responsible forest management practices. By carefully selecting our timber sources, we aim to minimize our ecological footprint and contribute to the preservation of our planet's precious resources. Through our dedication to sustainable timber procurement, we strive to create a positive impact, not only in the construction industry but also in the preservation of forests for future generations.
STRONG INDUSTRY PARTNERSHIPS
Through a deep understanding of and strong relationships with the mass timber industry, we create strategic procurement plans for each project to meet project design, cost, schedule, and sustainability goals. As part of our overarching effort to expand the mass timber supply chain, we source each mass timber structure from multiple suppliers – coordinating the highest value package for our clients.
SUSTAINABLE SOURCING
We are committed to responsible wood sourcing for our projects and offer creative solutions to meet sustainability and wood procurement goals. We maintain chain of custody certification for FSC®, SFI®, and PEFC forest management standards. We also offer more targeted and transparent sourcing opportunities for clients who want to tell a specific story about the wood's origin on their project.
